Porsche recalls Cayenne, Panamera models for fuel-seal flaw

13,500 units affected worldwide

Porsche is recalling 13,500 units of the Cayenne and Panamera manufactured between March 2011 until May 2012 to fix a fuel-seal problem that may allow fuel to evaporate.

Affected units are the 3-liter V6 engine versions and the hybrids as well.

The problem stems from a leaking seal in the fuel injection system that could allow fuel to evaporate creating the risk of fumes igniting and causing fire, although no such cases have been reported yet.
